In Context

2+ 2:2 (2-4) MP: Messiah establishes an ideal and everlasting kingdom in Jerusalem that brings world-wide rein and peace. The nations come to submit to King Messiah’s authority and repent of war. (Luke 24:47; 1 Cor 15:24-28) (See also Ps 2:6-7, 2:12, 8:6; Is 9:6-7; Mic 4:1-3) + 2:2 (2-4) MPr: Rambam explains: “King Messiah will arise in the future and will restore the kingship of David to its ancient condition, to rule as it was at first. And he will rebuild the Temple and gather the exiled of Israel. And in his days all the laws will return as they were in the past. Israel will offer up sacrifices, and will observe the Sabbatical years and the Jubilee years with regard to all the commandments stated in the Torah. And he who does not believe in Messiah, or he who does not await Messiah's coming, denies not only the prophets, but also the Torah and Moses our Master. For, behold, the Torah testifies about the Messiah as it is written in (Deut 30:3-5). ( Mishne Torah [Second Torah] written by RamBam – Hilchot Melachim, c. 11-12). ((Deut 30:3-5)) It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of Adonai’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, 2 and shall be raised above the hills; 2 and all nations + 2:2. Quoted in Luke 24:47 shall flow to it. 1

4He will judge between the nations, 2 and will decide concerning many peoples; 2 and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, 2 and their spears into pruning hooks. 1 Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, 2 neither shall they learn war any more. 1
